    Hikone is mostly a student town with the castle, and close to the largest lake - Lake Biwa. The sports complex is pretty nice and cool too. I recommend coming here during Sakura for the castle or even snow fall. 1-2 days is enough for a stop for sure.

    Hikone is a pleasant place, but not one you should plan a trip around. Possibly best for a day trip. The atmosphere and climate is reminiscent of small cities in New England. The lake is pleasant, but if you're interested in kayaking you should try towns on the western shore of the lake, even though they're more expensive resort towns. Hikone castle is obviously the reason to come here, but there are a few nice local restaurants as well. Other than that, it's mostly auto shops and people revving the engines of their souped-up cars every night.

    Hikone Castle is not comparable to Himeji Castle, but its surrounded by many cherry trees. It must look gorgeous during the blossom season. And in the woods below one side of the castle, there are huge number of white birds. It's very impressive to see them returing to their nets in late afternoon. And we do like the lake sunset.

    Hikone is easily reached by Shinkansen from Tokyo with a short trip (5 minutes) in a local train. The town has much to offer - an island temple easily reached by boat; a hugely impressive feudal castle (1 of only 4 genuine castles still standing in Japan) with a good museum and surrounded by 2 moats and a beautiful stroll garden. Close to the castle is are attractive streets with good quality shops and some old houses as well. The town is comfortably quiet compared to the nearby Kyoto which is now like Venice and seriously overcrowded. The one disadvantage which the town could fix very easily is that the bus service does not have information on routes and stops in English unlike Kyoto. Finally the time to visit is late March early April when the cherry blossom for which Hikone is famous is in flower.

    Hikone is just the right distance from Kyoto when travelling by bicycle to ride around Lake Biwa. Its castle grounds turn pink in the spring cherry blossom season and reflect beautifully in the moat's waters. Other seasons have their own distinctive attractions. In all seasons the local beef is great, all you need is an appetite.

    I really love APA hotels since they're so compact and affordable. This hotel is what you would expect from this chain's hotels. There were bus stops close by if you needed to go to the castle or centre and a few supermarkets, pharmacies and convenience stores were nearby too. Good restaurants are also around the area! Only nitpick I have is the bad air in the bathroom (possibly from mold), you need to have the ventilation on all times there otherwise the air is really heavy to breathe...

    The hotel was clean, comfortable with a friendly staff. Rooms were compact and well maintained. There was a generous breakfast but with few concessions to Western dishes. Again the dinner choices were Japanese - but well-served and tasty
